Ingredients

  • 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • Salt and pepper

Directions

Cook sausage in a cast iron skillet. When done, remove sausage from pan and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat. Whisk flour into the fat and cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and whisk in milk a little at a time. Return to medium-high heat and stir occasionally while the gravy comes to a simmer and thickens. (Be sure to scrape up any brown bits that might be stuck to the bottom of the pan, that's where the flavor is.) Check seasoning, add crumbled sausage and serve over toast or biscuits

    I never knew how easy it was to make biscuits and gravy. This recipe is easy and delicious. My husband loves it and though he doesn't cook, will make this recipe.

    Just made this...my first time making any type of gravy. It was very easy and delicious. I will say that you must salt and pepper it well as it is very bland. Of course, the amount of seasoning depends on the sausage you use and your personal taste.

    Excellent! Hubby was trying to talk the kids out of their portions as he liked it so much! Added a dollop of butter as I didn't have enough drippings, and I used mild italian sausage instead of breakfest sausage. Thanks for a great recipe Alton!
